Good for you! Go n-éirí leat. : )

Loved it 🙏🏼

I love that she says “GWAYLgyuh” for Gaeilge. That’s the true way of saying it according to the rules of pronunciation, which I will include below: The golden rule for spelling in Irish, caol le caol agus leathan le leathan, means slender with slender and broad with broad. The terms slender and broad refer to two categories of vowels. The broad vowels are a, o, and u. The slender vowels are i and e. The rule caol le caol agus leathan le leathan means that the vowels on either side of a consonant (or group of consonants) should agree; they should both be broad or both be slender. Except for “h”, all Irish consonants come in two flavors, called “broad” and “slender”. Basically, broad consonants are pronounced with a “-w” off-glide, and slender consonants are pronounced with a “-y” off-glide. Broad consonants are always written with the letters a, o, or u next to them. Slender consonants are always written with the letters i or e next to them. Examples: Slender “b” beo (byoh) bí (bee) Broad “b” bó (boh) buí (bwee) If you are interested in learning more about Gaeilge, I have been putting together some resources (see below): ************************************************ For those of you who are interested in learning our beautiful language, these are some resources I’ve gathered that you can use.

I'm irish from west cork exactly. And i'm using lockdown to reclaim my native language. Your channel will help alot . Thank you !
Maith thú! Lots of great Irish left in Kerry of course. So a chance to try out your newly-acquired skills this summer...
My mom barely remembers this language and I need to know...and learn, it's my heritage.
My god, At last an nice and easy way to learn Irish I hope there's more videos please Tina...
Thank you, Johnny! I'll see what I can do.
I'd love more too. You're the best I've seen!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@StokesCheri Have you checked out my other Irish language videos (see under Gaeilge Stuama)?
@@techt-thecelticmessenger2767 ...... Hola Señora ..... I'm English b stranded abroad. I decided to sub and learn. My son lives in Dublin so when I visit I can test on some locals. I've tried here in Spain and I am understand. Thanks. (Not with Spaniards but with the Irish that live here.)
You can't just learn Irish... You have to use it.
My Great grandma is from ireland. She had the accent which is beautiful ! Everything about Ireland is amazing!
Amy r u Irish?
Go visit if you haven't. You won't regret it
you have Celtic blood your blessed.
I speak 4 languages. English, German, Hungarian and Romanian. I've even tried a bit of Swedish and Icelandic. Hungarian, Romanian and English helped me a lot in learning German. German helped me make sense of Icelandic and Swedish. But I can't find any relationship with Gaelic. It's fascinating - a completely different world. Beautiful 😊
That's a fair mix of languages! Chapeau! If you go back long enough, there are actually similarities with other ancient Indo-European languages, such as Latin, Ancient Greek and Sanskrit. However, the modern languages have evolved to such an extent that only a linguist will be able to still notice the correlation. A different world indeed and what attracted me to study Celtic languages in the first place!
I find how are you VERY similar. Como estas tu? Spanish
There are lots of Latin loanwords like athair/pater (father) mathair/mater (mother). Counting: ean, do, tri, ceathar, cuig, se, seacht, ocht, naoi, deich - like Spanish un, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho, nueve, diez.
@@upgradeyourlife5791 I think that Spanish has had a lot of Celtic influences, so that might be right
that is seriously cool im jealous hehe
Im swedish and part irish im so glad to learn some gaelic from this video, Gaelic is a very beautiful language🇮🇪
In these 17 minutes I have learned more about a language than in my 1 hour French classes
I am German. I love Ireland and especially the Songs and the Culture and the People. I visited Ireland a lot and my english is quite good but I always had The idea to learn Irish. Now I try since a short period and I‘m getting into it somehow. It‘s not so easy but I try. You Tube helps a lot. Thanks.
Who legit thought this lady heard what u were saying
Thanks. I now have hope of succeeding at Irish. 🏋️🏿
Conas atá tú? is so similar to Spanish ¿Cómo estás tú? and they both mean the same thing. interesting.
ijansk If I recall, the Lebor Gabala Erinn says that the Milesians (Irish) arrived to Ireland from Spain.
@@Will-cu6vi You remember correctly, Frattelo! Although the stories in Lebor Gabála are of course just part of Irish Mythology.
"Conas atá tú" it's very similar to spanish and portuguese
This is the most effective intro to actually speaking Irish that I’ve seen so far. There are many interesting and fun Irish Gaelic videos, but this woman is a teacher. Thank you! I’ll be back!
I'm of Irish descent, From the people who left ireland to go to England. I have always been fascinated with what little irish heritage i could claim to have... I'm very interested in learning some of the language and these videos are the nearest i can get to it since i don't live in Ireland, thank you :) I do hope to visit Ireland someday, County Laois mainly because I think that is where my ancestors came from, they were Dunnes.
Good for you, Donovan! I'm glad that you find my videos helpful. County Laois is a beautiful part of Ireland, I hope you'll get to see it some day!
Thank you! Irish, Celtic, Gaelic and everything around Ireland I love! I'm from England but have Irish ancestory!
i am from New England, but I too have Irish ancestry. My dad speaks only Gaelic so that is why I am learning. so I can talk to him for once. I have actually never talked to him in my life except once

I speak fluent Spanish and Catalan but want to learn another language, always been interested in Irish culture, history, music, literature etc .. this is a great introduction
Go raibh míle maith agat!
Xe! Algú que parla català! Pensava que era l'únic que volia aprendre Gaèlic 😂
I’m a native Catalan and Spanish speaker, but I’m also half Irish, and speak very little Irish, so I’d like to learn more.
R. Sassoon why learn it it’s hard to learn and pointless they only speak it on the Gaeltacht
@@murph05xxx42 All of Ireland should be Gaeltacht
Thank You! I Am Irish but I could not speak it! But I now know to now!
I am from NEPAL. I love Irish music.
I am Irish but grew up in America so I only know English so now that I know my culture from my father I shel learn Irish!
Thanks for your work, gentle lady. I m getting started on this language with you. Greetings from the amazon
Totally Impressed by her native sounding English. I could not detect that English is not her native tongue.
I've just fallen in love with Irish, it's so beautiful and not as cumbersome as I thought it was! Go raibh maith agat!

Thank you so much for this . Other videos are way to fast pace but you go at such a perfect speed and kept my attention the whole time.
your so kind
It definitely rolls off the tongue nicely!
I loved it. She's a good teacher.
Thank you, and please more video. I want to learn Irish.....😃
Thank you kindly for sharing this intro to Irish. You present the lesson in such a simple and very clear manner. I’m encouraged and inspired to learn more.
Thank you for this video, ma'am. I really enjoyed it.
Learning the phrases is one thing but like ourselves here in Ireland, you will lose them as quickly for there is no one else to speak it to. Best to find a friend or family member to learn it with so you can practice conversation regularly. Good tutorial though.
I definitely agree! I tried to learn Irish about four years ago and I did quite a bit but because there was no one to practise with (I live in the north-west of England!) I forgot every word. Any language requires practice.
I'm Irish and I just learned how to learn how to speak it with your video
This is an amazing video! Thank you!
Thank you, Samantha!
Thank you Tina for your quick and easy introuction to the irish language. As an absolute beginner I find it very helpful to get a first impression of the sound of irish. Especially your advice on listening with closed eyes is a great idea. Please keep on. Best regards, Jens
Thank you so much for this course. In the past I've tried other Irish youtube experiments, but was unable to get the pronunciation. You've made it easy! Braidwood, Illinois
You make it so easy to understand Tina. Irish is such a beautiful language ☘️🇮🇪
Excellent learning there.
Thank you, John, I appreciate that!
I love speaking simple talk. It never gets too complex!
Awwww. Thanks so much. From the Philippines
i need this for the pub
Thanks so much for this lovely lesson. When you talk about how the simplest exchanges are blessings, I got this warm feeling. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your passion for spreading the language. Slán! :)
Thank you, Leaf! I am glad that you find my videos helpful. Slán leat!
Beautiful language!! "Tu" (you). exactly like Spanish "you) Tu? Interesting...
Same in French: Tu
Same as Italian Tu
Really enjoyed this. Thank you Tina.
Glad you did, thank you, Olivia!
thanks
I found this really fascinating....Thank you
You're welcome, Pete!
you are such a wonderful teacher! thank you! I'm exited to see more of your videos!
Thank you, Nora! : )

thank u for the great lesson very helpful
Glad you found it helpful, Seamus!
My grandmother was born in Co. Cork. When I first learned that there was an Irish language I asked her to teach me. She said she never learned it because "the English" made it illegal to speak Irish. She was born in 1909. I always wondered if this was true? She always hated "the English". Wondering if anyone else has ever heard this?
This was a thing and started as far back as the 1360s, when it was made illegal for colonists in Ireland from England to speak the Irish language and for native Irish to speak it to the colonists. In the 1530s it was made illegal to speak Irish in the Irish Parliament and in the 1540s it was made illegal for the Irish language to be spoken in areas of Ireland controlled by the English. She likely had hatred for the English because she would have grown up around the Irish War for Independence which wasn't the most pleasant of times, to put it euphemistically.
My Irish ancestors came to America in 1847, all of their records were done in English.
When England took over Ireland they made it illegal to speak Irish (along with many other things) and BUT there were some secret hedge schools where kids could got to learn so that's how the language stuck around then in1916 there was a rebelion against the English because ww1 was taking place and Ireland was neutral and we won the war but England still has "ownership" and of 6 county's in Ireland and the Republic just calls them the nort
@@_am_i_ell_ - The kingdom of Dalriada (Dál Riata) was in the north of Ireland and the west of Scotland - the Romans called the Irish Scotti and Ireland Scotia - the rivalry between Ulster and the other provinces is well documented , see The Cattle Raid of Cooley (Táin Bó Cúailnge) in the Book of the Dun Cow. Ireland never was "united" in recorded history and probably not even under the Tuatha Dé Danann.
Sadly it's true. Most Irish heritage and culture was outlawed as well. Growing up as a traditional Irish dancer we were airways told this is why we keep our arms down. So that an Englishman walking by on the street wouldn't see dancing if they glanced through a window.
Thankyou. Super
Thank you for posting this! I was born in America but my entire family comes from Ireland, and recently I’ve been take up in a wave of wanting to learn and study about Ireland, including learning the language. I might even want to move back! Slán!
Thank you for this. Learning the language for next year's trip to Ireland.
Thank you, Coinin! And have a great time in Ireland!
Thank you! I really enjoyed that. I have tried and tried to learn Irish in many ways and am so unsuccessful and really, really want to learn! This has made it sound more accessible, I'm going to persevere.
I love this channel. it has taught me SOOO much Irish or gaelic that i can speak fluent in it
Important to note that Irish is Irish but Gaelic is what Scottish people call Scottish. They are separate languages and the terms are not interchangeable.
Love it 💓💓💓
my great grandmother was from county roscommon. mary mcdermott. i'm American but I love irish culture. can't wait to visit your beautiful country in a couple months!
Any of our 3 Gaelic languages are great to learn. She explains and pronounces each word slowly and clearly.
I saw the Irish fianóglach recruit ad and I’m in love with the language.
Love your style, very very clear and beautifull accent, so easy to understand, God bless!!
Techt - The Celtic Messenger Thank you very much, I am happy that you find my video useful! If you're interested in more of my Irish language videos, check out my Gaelic Stuama Series. All the best to you!
I love to speak Irish now
I've been working through the Irish course on the Duolingo app. I wish I had your teaching to supplement the whole course! This short video was extremely practical and helpful!
Dia duit from Louisiana!
Irish is difficult but it is a very beautiful language! I live in Brazil and I love Ireland! Thanks for sharing so much knowledge!
I love this accent
This was really useful for me to start learning Irish, I'm also learning on how to make illuminated letters, so that way I can write on a piece of parchment a full story in Gaelige
That's lovely! Best of luck with that, Jane!
Oh how funny, " Conas atá tú? is almost exactly like Spanish: "Como estás tú?
That's because they're both Celtic languages
They are on separate branches, but distantly related. Take cead= c shifts to h, d to t (both dentals) HundreD! Also Latin CenTum. Do=Thy=Tuum=Twoj (Polish!) If one should look, most European languages are related, which one could use to remember many of the words. Look at conas ata tu as How art thou? or How is to thee?
Deirdre Collins nah spanish is a romance language
@@deirdrecollins4287 as a Spanish speaker I noticed that as well. And "Tá" means exactly the same as "Está" in Spanish, so does the two "Tú's".
And Italian too! I could relate a very similar structure for the first 3 sentences! Come stai (tu) ? = How are you?
Your teaching is far better than most as your giving the literal translation of the language instead of the English alternative!
very good
I really like this! Go raibh maith agat!
🍀WOW , Thank You .Sla'n
